We have been blessed by Tyler's love of the Lord and his leadership strength. He steps into many different roles and is always eager to lend a helping hand. Reverend Tyler Graftaas moved into the role of Lead Pastor of GoodTree Church following the merger vote on November 23, 2024. Tyler graduated with an M.Div. from the Canadian Southern Baptist Seminary in May of 2014. He was ordained the following September by GoodTree Christian Fellowship of the Canadian Baptists of Western Canada.

We are incredibly blessed to have Nahri on our staff team due to her creativity, compassion, and capability.
Nahri completed her Master of Leadership, Theology and Society from Regent College in 2024. She was ordained by GoodTree Church of the Canadian Baptists of Western Canada on June 22, 2025, and was officially voted in as Associate Pastor in July of that year. 

Her huge heart for children and relational skills make participating in ministry with her a joy. Her Master's in Arts from Ambrose University has educated her in a multitude of areas within Children and Family Ministries. She runs Sunday School, Summer Camps, Jr./Sr. High ministries, family events, and more... 

Noelle is fun, outgoing, organized, and a valuable member of our team. She graduated from the University of Calgary with a degree in Kinesiology. She continues her studies at the U of C to achieve a teaching degree. She is working alongside Pastor Natalie to assist in Family Ministries.

Leona has a heart of gold and brings God's care and compassion to everyone she meets. She prioritizes Jesus in her life, and her testimony will introduce you to Him. Leona is part-time at GoodTree Church and is responsible for visiting and connecting congregants. 

Angela is more than an administrator; she participates in numerous ministries at the church and is a lifelong Christian. Angela enjoys her work sending e-mails, updating data, coordinating events, advertising and more... She is who you will likely reach if you contact the church. 

Pastor Cornel has been a long-standing, faithful pastor. He retired in December 2017, but is continuing as a member and active volunteer of GoodTree Church. His main ministries are Sunday morning prayer and gathering the lunch bunch on the third Sunday of each month.   

Caretaker, is the perfect description for Neil, as he not only takes care of our facility but cares for everything he is involved in.  We are blessed to have Neil working hard to keep the building clean, maintained and welcoming.
